METHODOLOGY 


ys%$( 



In compiling the OWI Population Survey, the following method¬ 
ology was employed: 

I. The principal -sources consulted for statistics on population were: 

1) Most recent census reports, consulates and foreign government 
agencies. 

2) Standard statistical publications and reference works including 

The Statesman's Year-Book, 1942 
Statistical Year-Book of the League of 
Nations, 1940-41 
Population Index 
National Catholic Almanac, 1942 
Huebner's "Weltstatistik, 1939" 
and other statistical abstracts. 

3) More detailed information for specific territories was obtained 
from the following: 

Pelzer, Karl J., "Population and Land 
Utilization" 

Lattimore, Owen, "Inner Asian Frontiers of 
China" 

Keesing, Felix M., "The South Seas in the • 

Modern World" 

Chinese Yearbook, 1938-39 
Japanese Yearbook, 1941 
Official Yearbook of the Union of South 
Africa, 1941 

and other official handbooks. 

II. The methodology employed for arriving at populations varies accord¬ 
ing to the country covered. If an actual census was taken in any 
year since 1939, that figure has been used. If no official estimate 
was available for any year since 1940, an estimate has been calcu¬ 
lated on the basis of the average yearly rate of increase since the 
previous census. In this computation two factors are involved, 
either a) inter-censal rates of increase, or b) vital statistics 
(birth and death rates). All figures have been rounded out to the 
nearest thousand. 

III. In regard to the occupied countries of Europe, Statistics refer to 
the pre-war populations as of 1939, except in the case of certain 
countries (Belgium, Netherlands, Lithuania, Rumania, Yugoslavia), 
as indicated in the footnotes. 


ff.B. An asterisk (*) denotes an estimate based on the general consensus 
of a number of competent authorities and references consulted.

(1) To a large extent, population figures for West Africa are more or 
less hypothetical. No reliable enumeration of the natives has ever 
been conducted, and therefore these figures are mostly rough esti¬ 
mates. An attempt has been made to bring the population estimates 
up-to-date, using as a basis latest colonial census reports for 
British (1931), French (1936), and Portuguese (193A) possessions. 

(2) Official estimate of Liberian Government. Other estimates vary 1 

to 3 mill ions.

present the combined opinions of leading Arabicists. 

(2) Estimate, March 1942, based on annual rate of increase of 1.12%

give an accurate estimate of the total population. According to 
various authorities, the population ranges between 5? and 13 millions. 
Official Ethiopian estimate of 1935 gives 5,500,000 while the Ital¬ 
ians figure 9,300,000 as of 1939. 

(4) Official estimate, October 1942, according to a radio broadcast 
from Ankara, Turkey. 

(5) Official Estimate, June 1941, including 90,000 refugees who have 
entered the country illegally. 

(6) Census - January 1942, exclusive of nomadic tribes.

(1) Official estimate, June 194-1. 

(2) Because of lack of sufficient data, the total population of China 
cannot be accurately established. Various authoritative estimates 
differ widely, some surveys placing the population as low as 350 
millions and others as high as 600 millions. Population experts 
seem to agree that the figure is probably 450 to 475 millions, 
including Manchuria. Figures indicated include the 24 provinces 
of China proper, Mongolia, and Tibet. 

(3) Provinces of Inner Mongolia (Chahar, Minghsia, and Su.iyu.an) - total 
population 5,200,000. 

(4) Russian estimate of population — probably most reliable. 

(5) Estimate, January 1942. The figures for the provinces are estimates 
based on the 1936 census, taking into consideration the abnormal 
population pressure in Annam and Tonkin. 

(6) Preliminary returns, Census of October 1940. 

(7) Territory leased to France in 1899, under the administrative juris¬ 
diction of the Governor-General of Indo-China. 

(8) Preliminary returns, Census of October 1940. 

(9) Estimate, March 1942, computed on basis of an annual rate of in¬ 
crease of 2.96%.
